EXTRA VALUE FROM JEEP NIGHT EAGLE SPECIAL EDITIONS

Jeep_Night_Eagle_rangeJeep has released special edition Night Eagle versions of its Cherokee and Grand Cherokee mid-sized and large SUVs.

They use the same dark appearance which has worked well for Jeep in previous Blackhawk special editions and in the Cherokee Night Eagle that was sold here in mid-2018.

The Night Eagle models are based on the entry-level AWD variants of each model (Grand Cherokee Laredo and Cherokee Longitude) but according to Jeep add over $10,400 worth of customer value for only $5500 in the Grand Cherokee and more than $6400 for only $3200 in the Cherokee.

The Grand Cherokee Night Eagle features black exterior finishes throughout as well as 20-inch five-spoke blacked-out alloy wheels; deep tint sunscreen glass; single-pane sunroof; and ‘Night Eagle’ badging on the tailgate.

Inside there’s Black Capri leather seat upholstery with perforated suede inserts and black accent stitching. The infotainment system uses the UConnect 8.4-inch screen with satellite navigation and pairs to Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.

The Cherokee Night Eagle follows the same theme with gloss-black exterior styling enhancements including front and rear fascia and roof rails, and ‘Night Eagle’ badging. It rides on 18-inch black alloy wheels and also has the Jeep Longitude Technology Package which includes adaptive cruise, side distance warning and parallel and perpendicular park assist.

Grand Cherokee Night Eagle is available with either of the two Laredo engines, the Jeep 3.6-litre Pentastar petrol or 3.0-litre EcoDiesel.
